Gary Doane met with commissioners to discuss the economic proposal and funding a position. Commissioners discussed the issue of giving money to fund economic development or having the position be a county employee. Commissioners would consider monetary support and not have the economic development position be a county position. If the position is going to be under the supervision of county commissioners they want total authority to hire and fire the person. Gary Doane stated that there are a lot of young people on this committee who would like to see this happen. They would be willing to volunteer and get involved. Gary Doane shared an agenda for Osborne County Leadership Class and invited commissioners to attend one of the classes. Commissioners stated they are waiting to hear back from Paul Gregory on the proposal.
